I followed Falko's guide to the perfect debian sarge setup. No problems on that part. When I try to install ISPConfig and I get to that last part where you have to select the installation mode, I get the following error: Checking for program httpd... /usr/bin/httpd OK Checking the syntax of the httpd.conf... Syntax error on line 7 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proftpd.conf: Invalid command 'ServerType', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration ERROR: The syntax of your httpd.conf is not ok! Please correct the error. The installation routine stops here! I examined the config file but can't find any invalid commands or syntax errors. Maybe I overlooked something or just made a mistake?
Ok here is my /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proftpd.conf Code: # # /etc/proftpd.conf -- This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file. # To really apply changes reload proftpd after modifications. # ServerName "Debian" ServerType standalone DeferWelcome off MultilineRFC2228 on DefaultServer on ShowSymlinks on TimeoutNoTransfer 600 TimeoutStalled 600 TimeoutIdle 1200 DisplayLogin welcome.msg DisplayFirstChdir .message ListOptions "-l" DenyFilter \*.*/ # Uncomment this if you are using NIS or LDAP to retrieve passwords: #PersistentPasswd off # Uncomment this if you would use TLS module: #TLSEngine on # Uncomment this if you would use quota module: #Quotas on # Uncomment this if you would use ratio module: #Ratios on # Port 21 is the standard FTP port.

That looks like /etc/proftpd.conf. It's the Proftpd configuration file and has nothing to do with Apache. Did you accidentally copy it to /etc/apache2/mods-enabled? If /etc/proftpd.conf is existing, then delete /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proftpd.conf, otherwise move it to /etc.
You were right, I must have somehow copied the file to the mods-enabled directory. Thanks for the help! And btw I love your howtos, keep up the good work!
